Former Vice President Joe Biden at 29 percent, Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders at 19 percent and Massachusetts Sen. Elizabeth Warren at 18 percent are the top contenders by far in the Post-ABC poll — attracting the support of approximately two-thirds of those registered Democratic voters polled.

California Sen. Kamala Harris sits in fourth place with 7 percent, followed by South Bend Mayor Pete Buttigieg at 4 percent.

Only four others drew more than 1 percent support.

Look for Kamela and Mayor Pete to get crazy in the next debate. I gotta think that Biden's number are really a placeholder right now, but who knows...

Nominee Biden isn't going to provide a lot of excitement. Not sure Bernie can motivate people like last time where Warren maybe can. If the Dems have any shot of taking back the Senate along with the WH they're going to need a candidate that lights a fire out there.

with unity!

QuoteRgrFOf the three, that's probably Warren.

It's looking that way to me too right now, but lots can happen before the final vote....

Not my favorite for either, but a Biden-Harris ticket would be fine with me.

Biden's too old. Trump: ditto.

Biden's too prone to gaffes. Trump: Are you kidding me?

The Obama-Biden years look awfully good now to nearly everyone except dead-end Deplorables. Let Uncle Joe take his turn, and if he's still around in 4 years, he can step down and pass the torch to the future in Harris.

I can't stand Harris. She has a prosecutor mentality. During her stint in CA she originated and backed the idea of jailing parents of truant kids. It became law and she was suitably horrified when she found right wing prosecutors actually doing what she proposed.

She just another self-interested self-promoting politician, not an original progressive idea in her head. She hopes to become the female Obama but can't hold a candle to him intellectually.

My quibble with Warren as VP would be that the position is typically a placeholder intended to never steal the boss’s limelight. I don’t see her wanting to be silenced, essentially. She’s a good Senatorial firebrand. (But she’d be a good president, too. And probably better than Bernie.)

I wonder if Beto or Castro as Biden's VP could put Texas in play? If Texas flips, it is well and Truly over for Trumski!

EDIT: I'd love to see Harris on the Supreme Court!

"To announce that there must be no criticism of the President, or that we are to stand by the President, right or wrong, is not only unpatriotic and servile, but is morally treasonable to the American public." - Theodore Roosevelt (1918)

"I don’t want to see religious bigotry in any form. It would disturb me if there was a wedding between the religious fundamentalists and the political right. The hard right has no interest in religion except to manipulate it." - Billy Graham 1981

"Politics and governing demand compromise. But these Christians believe they are acting in the name of God, so they can't and won't compromise" - Barry Goldwater

Tim Kaine, although by all accounts a good and honorable man, was a lousy VP pick: he barely delivered Virginia. Had Booker been the VP nominee, Hillary would have won.

So it's important to think of a complete ticket, which virtually requires that Booker or Harris be on the ticket in some position. O'Rourke won't be the nominee, but he'd be a good VP for Booker (less so Harris) or Sanders or Biden (less so Warren). Sanders and Warren need a pragmatist with alternative credentials, and I don't think your can go with an all-white or all-black ticket unless there are sharp contrasts in viewpoint, such as an idealist and a pragmatist.

Apparently you have forgotten President Cheney.

"In science it often happens that scientists say, 'You know that's a really good argument; my position is mistaken,' and then they would actually change their minds and you never hear that old view from them again. They really do it. It doesn't happen as often as it should, because scientists are human and change is sometimes painful. But it happens every day. I cannot recall the last time something like that happened in politics or religion." (1987) -- Carl Sagan
